Your Community. Our Support.

S. H. Cowell Foundation is a grantmaking organization that invests in communities who are committed to achieving lasting, positive change for children and families living in poverty. Recognizing that economic inequality intersects with racial injustice, we promote antiracist practices and equitable outcomes for people and communities of color.

We envision towns and neighborhoods across Northern and Central California where people from all sectors—residents, public and non-profit service providers, educators, and civic leaders—strive together to build and sustain strong communities that support positive, equitable outcomes for children and their families.
